APC by Schneider Electric Switched Rack AP8965 24-Outlets 8.6kW PDU - APC Switched Rack Power Distribution Units (PDUs) enable advanced, user-customizable power control and active monitoring. Remote outlet level controls allow power on/off functionality for power cycling to remotely reboot equipment and restrict unauthorized use of individual outlets. Power sequencing time delays allow users to define the order in which to power up or down attached equipment to avoid circuit overload. Current metering provides real-time remote monitoring of connected loads with user-defined alarms to warn of potential circuit overloads. Users can access, configure, and control Switched Rack PDUs through secure Web, SNMP, Command Line Interface, or Telnet Interfaces which are complimented by APC Centralized Management platforms using InfraStruxure Central, Operations, Capacity, and Energy Efficiency. New AP8000 series Switched Rack PDUs include real power monitoring, a temperature/humidity sensor port, and locking IEC receptacles.

We have a bunch of these. They're good for monitoring power and temperature. They reliably provide power to our systems.

The downside -- they are horrible about adding features. No firmware updates in nearly 2 years despite some glaring missing features. No LDAP support for authentication - they only support insecure, unencrypted RADIUS or local accounts. TELNET is open by default. Our security team is not happy with these. Unable to hot swap the controller module in case of failure - they need to be powered off before servicing, meaning that the entire PDU must be de-energized for service if the control module fails.

Overall, these are adequate devices that could benefit from a few engineering tweaks that could make these excellent.
